Elina Svitolina and Gael Monfils training in Madrid

Gael Monfils and Elina Svitolina are inseparable, and they enjoy training together.

Both are recovering from injuries as a knee injury sidelined the Ukrainian while the Frenchman was struggling with his Achilles.

In Madrid, Elina and Gael had a different outcome in their opening matches as Svitolina lost to Pauline Parmentier 6-4 7-6 (6) while Monfils reached the 3rd round after beating Andreas Seppi 6-3 6-1 and Marton Fucsovic 1-6 6-4 6-2.

Svitolina decided to stay in Madrid with her boyfriend instead of heading to Rome to get ready for the upcoming tournament that she won for the last 2 years.

Training together

Elina and Gael posted a nice video about their training when they were “killing each other” try to win points.

It’s a G.E.M.S. life.
